Digging in the Dirt – Updates, Questions and a Stray Poem

I don’t have a beautiful mind. Math has never been a strong suit of mine, and so, in November, rather than doing NaNoWriMo (apologies to all who were really looking forward to hearing me go on and on about it) I will be taking grade 12 Maths.

Yes, you read that correctly.

I’m looking to go back to college in January and in order to do so I have to upgrade my skills, such as they are (practically non-existent, I swear).

I also have to delay the project I had mentioned before, if only because I know there’s no way in hell I’ll be able to pull it all together for Christmas. However, those who mentioned they were interested, if you are still up for trying it, I’ll see what I can come up with, and give you all a bit more time, and it can be a project for the new year.

Still to come — the third book in the Jessica series.

If you haven’t read JESSICA and SINGULARITY yet, ’tis the season.

In the meantime, I’ll be digging in the dirt to unearth some writing you may or may not have encountered before — stuff from my now defunct other blog The Weltschmerz Collection — and I also have an offer for you/question of interest.

Last November, I wrote the first book of a trilogy titled The People of the Manatii (read more about it HERE) and I wondered if you’d like to read it — spread out over the months of November/December, serialized here on the Dilettante Factory as well as over on whoisjessica.com

Let me know if you’re interested. In the meantime, here’s a poem for you entitled “What if God Had a Stroke”
